Great set up and lots of fun. Hosts were accommodating. Couple of the Targets were a little beat up, but understand this was due to a supply issue…? Overall great experience. Thank you

Brett! My guide Brett was so great and amazing at teaching and guiding my partner and I. He made the whole experience fun as he encouraged us and supported us throughout our time there. I would highly recommend doing this axe throwing activity. Thank you for such a great time!

A very fun thing to do if you've never experienced it.

Richard_J, Dec 2023
We really enjoyed this activity as a family. We've never done this before and doing this didn't disappoint. And you will get tired of throwing those axes by the end of the activity. I hope more people will experience this when they visit whistler. It is affordable with great memories.

Axtwerfen

Carola_H, Sep 2024
Wir waren ganz allein, aber das hat der Stimmung nicht geschadet. Will, unser Guide des Abends, hat uns alle Tricks des Axtwerfens gezeigt und uns super "geteached" und angefeuert. Danke für den tollen Abend. C&A aus Berlin

Très amusant!!
